by
Axiom Discs
SKU: DG-AXM-N-DEF (REF 12-45)
Description
The Axiom Neutron Defy distance driver is Axiom's stable-overstable, line-locking distance driver, molded in Neutron plastic. It's built for power throwers who need a driver that won't turn away from its line, and it's at its best on long, straight power drives with a forward-finishing fade. If you're shopping for a dependable Defy for your bag, this Neutron run is a great place to start.
Neutron Plastic
Neutron is the most popular plastic in the MVP and Axiom lineup and their flagship blend. It's opaque with a premium look and feel, and it comes in the widest selection of bright colors, which makes your Defy easy to find in any terrain. Neutron shares the great durability of Proton, so it holds its flight for a long time instead of wearing in quickly. Paired with Axiom's colorful GYRO rims, it's as good looking as it is dependable. The Defy is also available in Eclipse, Fission and Prism Proton Soft.
The Mold
The Defy is a 21.1 cm distance driver with a 21 mm rim. It flies straight with a nice bite of overstability at the end, and MVP describes it as a more stable MVP Photon or a longer Axiom Clash. It shows remarkable resistance to turnover even at high power. Players seeking a long, straight power driver will appreciate its line-locking tendencies, and throwers who aren't fully powering it still get a highly usable long overstable disc.
Stability
The Defy is stable-to-overstable. Overstable discs resist turning over and fade hard at the end, which makes them predictable in wind and at high power. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it resists turning over and finishes with a strong, dependable fade to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with that hard fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It's best suited to intermediate and advanced players, and it's a valuable utility disc for anyone who plays in wind.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 11 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -1 | A touch of high-speed turn to the right (RHBH) for a little extra distance. |
| Fade | 3 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |

FAQ
Is the Axiom Defy good for beginners?
It's better as a second driver. Players who aren't fully powering the Defy still get a usable overstable disc, but it will fade early.
Is the Axiom Defy overstable?
Yes. The Defy is stable-to-overstable, rated 11/5/-1/3, so it resists turning over and finishes with a dependable fade.
What's the difference between Neutron and Proton plastic?
Neutron is opaque with the widest color selection, while Proton is translucent with similar durability and slightly more grip. Both hold their flight for a long time.
What disc is similar to the Axiom Defy?
The MVP Photon (11/5/-1/2.5) is a little less stable. MVP describes the Defy as a more stable Photon.
How far does the Axiom Defy fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 375 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
